Prevention Management is Key!

Restrict the spread of a flu virus by implementing infection-control measures. Preventing pandemic influenza requires the same techniques as preventing seasonal influenza, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Preventing infection includes disinfecting frequently touched surfaces, preventing cross-contamination, and promoting proper handwashing.

In order for surfaces to be considered disinfected, 95% of harmful substances must be removed and or killed. Wiping contaminated surfaces with a disinfectant effective against Type A influenza viruses should kill the more virulent of viruses, according to the World Health Organization.

For high traffic areas with frequently touched surfaces, McLemore utilizes Oxivir Tb Wipes.
